First, I am not one to tell you how great BB's coaching tree is. The list of assistants who have left Foxboro and gone on to fail as HC's is long. Still, 7-5 at Penn State is respectable, considering his hands were so tied. I'd like to see a bit more on his record before I handed him the keys to the car.

If he were replacing BB, I'd be very, very skeptical. I am not saying it's not a good hire, merely that I feel he's still a bit of an unknown as a head man.
